G1 Hun-Gurr

[robot-rarepairs-dotcom]

I don’t know about baseline Hun-gurr and Scattershot, but thinking about the Technobots and the Terrorcons in shattered glass has me thinking that the two leaders of those groups in that universe would be pretty cute together. Like Scattershot goes to the Terrorcon to get like. Professional mental help for him and his team, and him and Hur-gurr end up bonding from there.

I love this fandom because I was today years old when I heard of this

[queen-of-heretics]

Hun-gurr and thi-rrrst are Siamese twins, Hun-gurr is on the left and Thi-rrst is on the right

Hun-gurr:

Hun-gurr is the dominant twin and controls the body, Hun-gurr's head is always raised above thi-rrst's

Hun-gurr's well hunger is a near unstoppable force within his mind, something he simply must act on, testament to this are the grievous wounds witch decorate Thi-rrst's face and neck from his many attempts at eating him.

His hunger is not without reason, his signature power converts all mass he consumes into highy destructive energi beems. On the rare ocation he is not overwhelmed by his hunger, he is a suprisingly inteligent leader, with a Possessive streak towards his team.

Thi-rrrst:

the mild manored of the two, Thi-rrrst spends his day trying to avoid the attention of his all Devouring brother. Tho Thi-rrrst is not without his own gluttony even if he never let's get to the point Hun-gurr has .

Transformers: The Beasts Without

Amongst the Transformers gestalt teams, there’s a trend of describing these vast, aggregated creatures as being, well, monsters. Yet even winthin the category of ‘giant monster sized giant alien transforming robots,’ there are some who get a further description of being monstrous, of being something a little incomprehensible and alien to the existing minds of their allies and cohorts. Now, setting aside the one time the Autobots did this with Volcaninus, about whom I have feelings, these gestalts are typically Decepticons.

Thing is, what makes this particularly weird is that the Decepticons have a bunch of monster gestalts. Not ‘one gestalt who is the monster one,’ but a bunch of times where they put the lore behind the gestalt as ‘behold! the monstrous one!’

Anyway, here are three of those.

A recurring challenge for gestalts is managing the way five minds are made to be physically compatible with one another. Sometimes this evinces a simplified persona, sometimes this creates a new character based around an aggregate of the component minds’ hopes, or dreams. Sometimes, and oh so commonly for Decepticons, it creates a big angry boy who just wants to fight everything. Abominus does that.

Abominus is composed of five transformers, who are themselves all Decepticons who turn into monsters. They include Hun-Gurr, a great strategist who’s overwhelmed by his hunger, Rippersnapper, a softboy who hates himself and turns into a shark with feet (don’t worry, the Decepticons have another of those), Sinnertwin, a sadistic serial killer, Blot, who’s also here with a note from his mum, and Cutthroat, who uh, is kinda just like Sinnertwin but has wings.

In terms of sheer threat, Abominus is the coolest and best one. Abominus is composed of four cool monster transformers and Blot, and the overall aesthetic of the mass of metal (and by metal I mean plastic) is that of a terrible monster man made up of terrible monsters. The guy has dragons for knees, his arms have wings and a horn made of a tail, and the whole overall beast is kind of sleek.

As a toy, Abominus is honestly pretty good. Because he’s made up of a classic scramble-city style critter, he’s got a big central piece and four more streamlined pieces, two of which make better arms and two of which make better legs, but they also let that central piece form a big, solid core. He’s a bit broad-stanced, but it beats some of the other combiners that are a bit ropy based on their size and friction needs. Talking about you, Seacons.

Monstructor is a dark shadow of evil, a fundamental piece of something wrong, something unnatural and in-cybertronian that existed before its pieces were brought together. He is a cruelty that breathes.

He is made up of the stupidest looking transformers in the world, his head is bright yellow and his chest is made of Gold Plastic, meaning that he has a more tangible form of timer on his existence than any of the narrative may imagine. He is also, because he’s made up of Micromasters, roughly the same size as a G1 Hot Rod, who also sucks.

Poor Monstructor is such a cool idea in the high concept way of things. He’s a Lovecraftian monster that a bunch of transformers come together to form into a creature that has a shape into which something much older, more primordial and more mystical than the parts can ever contain. The problem is this concept came along, as with so many things in the history of Transformers, at exactly the right time to not have a good place to land, meaning that Monstructor is made up out of the bodies of the six Pretender Monsters, which are all basically ugly cubes with extrusions that transform into things that you will almost always wind up describing as “<squints> something,” and have memorable names like Icepick. Birdbrain. Bristleback. Scowl. Slog. Wildfly. Snort. I made one of those up. No, it wasn’t Slog.

Cool idea, awful execution. As with so many of these orphan ideas, though, good news, he gets to live on in the comics, in which it doesn’t matter how stupid his crew look.

But Predaking owns a special place in this pantheon in that in the context of the show that was built around these toys, the places where these characters were first ensouled, Predaking both existed (in that he was in the show) and that he set the template the rest of these beasts followed upon.

The first gestalts were simplified idiots, in G1. You had Devastator, the Giant Green Angry Baby, Menasaur who was basically a tantrum throwing simplified monster person, and Bruticus, who included Swindle, was a pure, efficient, soulless killing machine. Of the gestalts the Gen1 decepticons had access to, then, there were three blunt, brutal instruments that needed supervision to be dangerous.

Not Predaking.

No, Predaking doesn’t need instruction. Predaking is exactly that: he’s an unthinking, calculating, stalking predator and he needs no guidance nor demand to engage with his prey. Now, what complicates this description of him is talking about a character who is a stalking, relentless hunter that can track you for days across the limits of your endurance, while ignoring that Predaking is a giant robot the size of a school, and not a you know, sleek predator that has something it can hide in. What I’m saying is, unless you are, yourself, also the size of several busses stacked up on top of one another, the ‘hunt’ part of Predaking’s command pattern doesn’t exactly seem likely to come up and it’s not like he can leap out at you from a stealthy hiding place, because again, he is a giant monster on the scale of one of those American monuments they had to detonate sacred mountains for.

Like, I appreciate the concept of linking together six minds with a common interest in animals and getting an animal intelligence, and the name, Predaking, top notch even if it is a typo away from being a real problem in a chat room. But there’s just a fundamental lacking component of a stalking predator that really scares us (lions, jaguars, all that good stuff) when you put it onto something that’s roughly the size of a moderate town-house with an even more deadly form of rent.

There’s nothing wrong with any of this of course, because this is an ad for toy transforming alien robots. It’s something a lot of science fiction and fantasy writers are trying to do their best job on as a project that is going to engage children and excite them with cool characters. These monsters are meant to be baddies to lose and threats to run from, because that’s how you make stories exciting.

The fact that there are these characters that are made to tap into common ideas (monsters, the monstrous, the unknowable, the predator) that break down a little when they��re giant robots is fine.

But what if we try it again?

most of their time is spend far from Decepticon territory, where they can devour Autobots without dealing with other Decepticons

When not on the hunt the group is collectively fangirling over Sixshot or attempting to providing emotional support to the Monstructor Six.

They may not be loyal to the decepticons or Megatron but, they Are devoted to their compiner siblings, the Seacons and Monstructor Six.

Transformers: The Lost Knights

Borrows more strongly from Bayverse. Three factions- Autobots, Decepticons, and Dinobots.

Story

Long ago the Knights of Cybertron were sent out into the Universe to hunt down and destroy Unicron and his minions. They were amongst the most powerful cybertronians of all. They did not come back.

Cybertron descends into civil war, egged on in secret by Quintessa. Eons pass, and the war finds it's way to Earth. The Lost Knights of Cybertron have been discovered, and begin awakening on Earth.

Having spent countless millennia bathed in Unicron's Primal Energon, the "Dinobots" reawaken, having lost all sense of self.

Autobots and Decepticons both struggle to get the Dinobots on their side. They must first capture the Dinobot, then reawaken the Cybertronian within. The Autobots choose more peaceful routes, the decepticons often resorting to force, by installing BW style shell programming.

Themes

The line would last one and a half to two years.

Dinobots are technorganic and scientifically accurate.

Decepticons carry a Mad Max/Poacher hybrid theme. Autobots hold a exploration/conservationist/environmentalist theme.

Megatron is very much a straight up adaptation of his DotM design, but there's more than a smattering of BW personality in there. He's much more crafty than most Megatrons.

Bumblebee takes his alt mode inspiration from the Captain Planet geocruiser.

Lots of girl TFs! (Can't transfer which from my notes without wrecking the flow of the list. But happy to add on if asked)

I don't really intend there to be three Titans and three Commanders in a two year period. Just that all three factions have an option.

Transformers Power of the Primes Abominus

I picked up the entire set of Power of the Primes Terrorcons at TFcon 2019, and it was one of the main things I was after. The extra character, Cindersaur, was included in the deal as a free bonus when I bought the entire set from the seller.

What a colorful and delightfully ugly bunch this gang of monster robots is. Blot, the purple and dark blue one, is an especially great figure, with a unique transformation. Cutthroat has the same Transformation as Swoop from the POTP Dinobots, and I like how he can pose a bit in his beast-bird mode. Rippersnapper has a ton of personality in his fish-monster mode, and the fact that he transforms into a seemingly generic Decepticon robot is part of the charm. The color scheme on Sinnertwin is gaudy and weird in all the best ways, just like the vintage figure its based on. Then we have the big boss Hun-Gurr, who is actually a retooled Combiner Wars Silverbolt? Very surprising and creative, but works perfectly fine. The only thing really missing is that Hun-Gurr doesn’t come with a sword.

But that combined mode! Big, imposing, fun to put together, and absolutely solid. Abominus hold together better than any other recent combing figure that I’ve laid hands on thus far. I knew it as soon as I finished assembling it (which I streamed live on my Twitch channel) than this was my new favorite combiner.

There are a few other combiners out there that I would like to have (Victorion, LioKaiser, the Optimus and Galvatron sets, Megatronia, etc) but as far as combiner teams from the original Hasbro G1 series goes, the only one left is the Seacons. I really want those guys, but they are only being distributed via online pre-orders, and this is one of the most annoying and ill timed ways of getting Transformers figures they’ve ever come up with. I hope another avenue opens up for that, and that I have the money for them when it does, because having the entire bunch of Combiners would be awesome.
